I can right click in the right panel, not in left, and select repageinate and mark "Delete obsolte fix brakes" bur nothing happens in the left panel it is still not accesible.

I also se that if i take the project thats has the panel outgreyed and copies the project back to the virtual machine it is accesible again, this, in my world, suggests that something differs between the two control builders. I havecompared these and can't se any diffrence.

May you open the new project and add simple logic in you new CBM? Then can you try to go in Test Mode. In case it is working, most probably you don't copy exactly the full project from the visrual machine. For that, it is better to do Tools -> Maintenance -> Project Backup and move that copy to the ne CBM

Test mode principally emulate download to the controller. It is a kind of check if you could download and start the project. To be honest, I've never seen such a grey window. Please try with a new (empty) project first

I have been a part of the Recording & Control Factory team for 17 years in total, having spent a number of years as a repairs technician withi the manufacturing department, but being in my current role for 9 years now.
